VIRTUALLY THERE: Stream Air Canada movies at home

Running out of things to watch during the pandemic? Air Canada wants to help. The airline is offering Aeroplan members free entertainment content from Canadian partners that can be streamed at home for free.

In what is being called an industry first, Aeroplan members based in Canada can take advantage of the offer through July 22 to view more than 200 titles, which include Canadian and cultural cinema classics presented by Telefilm Canada.

There is also a variety of content from such Canadian cultural organizations as the National Film Board of Canada, the imagineNATIVE film festival, Reel Asian film festival and Prends ça Court.

In recognition of Pride Month, the carrier is also offering a wide variety of LGBTQ2+ content from OUTtv.

“Through the great content we have curated for our customers, we are bringing summer celebrations to Canadians,” says Andrew Shibata, Managing Director of Brand at Air Canada.

It is assumed that viewers will have to provide their own popcorn.

Membership in the Aeroplan program is free at Aeroplan.com/enroll. Content can be viewed at https://watch.aircanadavideo.com/ .
